It may be the switch itself since the actuators according to what I read, works when the other-one is actuated. If you or whom ever removes the door cover, make sure they check the connections to the switch first.

I believe an after market connection made by a supplier took the wire from under the dash and spliced to it. I believe that is the final root cause. Thanx for your helpful advice. Appreciate it. Bruce-LA
